Special Subject - Lois Weber Sampler – HYPOCRITES (1915); WHERE ARE MY CHILDREN? (1916); SHOES (1916); and THE BLOT (1921)

  • サマリー

  • We devoted our 2024 September Special Subject to American silent film auteur Lois Weber. We discuss four films, the allegorical Hypocrites (1915), which created a sensation at the time with its full-frontal female nudity, and three films that showcase Weber's progressive Christian social vision, Where Are My Children? (1916), which confusedly tackles the subjects of birth control and abortion, and the masterpieces Shoes (1916) and The Blot (1921), dramas centered on the consciousness of women that deal respectively with working-class and genteel poverty.
